[NASL] Players (final) - Page 6
| Forum Index > StarCraft 2 Tournaments |
Players such as Jinro, HuK, and Adelscott did not apply for this tour, so don't ask why they aren't on this list. DIMAGA, Kas, and LaLush turned applications in late so they will not appear either. Please take some time to learn who exactly applied. Please inform yourself about who applied and who didn't. | ||

There are going to be some major major players that are left off this list at this rate. Moon won IEM so why not invite him lol, plus he's the biggest WC3 draw you could imagine save for maybe grubby. Darkforce is legit, pretty much any top european player I believe deserves to go over many top NA players, especially ones that place in the top 3 consistently in the bevy of european cups/tournaments. Cruncher is anothe rinteresting choice, he's done his thing in the one TLopen to qualify, but after that i mean its not like he enters many tournaments, his style is very strong to just outright defeat people, he's a good player, but is he top 50? Btw, Moon did not win IEM. It was ST.Ace with Moon coming in at 2nd place. | ||

If so we need Moon vs. Grubby I don't think he is good enough, but holy shit is he ever improving fast! Few more months and he should be competing with the top players. Also guys, don't forget that there are a total of 10 groups. So the 15 don't have to be distributed in those 5. | ||

If so we need Moon vs. Grubby Uhh, if we're taking into consideration the best of the best, I'm not sure he would be top 50, but due to him being Grubby and the fact that some of the people who we know that are invite haven't accomplished THAT much in sc2 I have a feeling he can make it. Skill wise I think he is improving everyday and really favors his blink stalker micro. | ||

They would've been forced to do that anyway. No way they would have been able to appease everyone. There are a lot of fans out there cheering for their favourite player. Certainly, more than 50 of the applicants have a sizable fanbase. Someone was going to be unhappy no matter what. :D | ||

There is nothing we are seeing form the NASL so how should they show you that they are improving? These 15 players are highlevel. Darkforce is the BEST German Zerg player and consistenly places high in the EU Go4SC2 cups. Socke is a beast in PvP and beat Squirtle 4 out of 6 times. And calling these players awful, maybe they are the worst players in the league? Who knows? This are only 15 out of 50(!). So still enough room for July, MC, Nada etc. Just Chill dudes! | ||

As long as Artosis gets a spot. I think Cruncher is an OK choice if their plan is to NOT invite every single Korean who applied. Cruncher would be in the top 30 or 40 of non-Korean applicants we know of, it's just there's 20+ Korean players on the list better than him (probably). | ||

They are probably only taking the very known koreans (like MC, NaDa, and BoxeR) and going with more NA/EU players. I remember on State of the Game (or somewhere else) that they wanted this to reach mainstream on the levels of American football and I guess that they believe that more English speaking players would help the league. It just shows that while teamliquid will make up the initial crowd that they are trying to aim for, we are not the primary audience. This is evident by the poll done in that one thread that shows that the majority of teamliquid would want top players even if it meant that there are fewer numbers of NA/EU players. Quite frankly I am disappointed in some of the players that are listed so far. If it really does take off on a wide scale, then Koreans would come over, beast the qualifiers, and win everything. | ||

July, Boxer, Nada, MC, (even Ace) all have better credentials that those chosen so far. (so do Top, Ensnare, Squirtle, Rainbow)... Oh so you want the GSL? | ||

I think what they will do is take Koreans with foreigner connections. Obviously Moon being very familiar with the foreigner scene is an easy choice. I think other obvious choices are: Boxer, MC, some other oGs guys, some of the ST guys (Ace and Squirtle for coming to IEM). Not many Koreans applied, its basically just Boxer, Moon, oGs, and ST. | ||
